Inspiration
What is Urine Drainage Bag?
Urine drainage bags collect urine. The bag will attach to a catheter (tube) that is inside your bladder. You may have a catheter and urine drainage bag because you have urinary incontinence (leakage), urinary retention (not being able to urinate), surgery that made a catheter necessary, or another health problem.
Pain Points
What if you become catheter user?
